NAME
podman-kill - Kill the main process in one or more containers
SYNOPSIS
podman kill [options] [container ...]
podman container kill [options] [container ...]
DESCRIPTION
The main process inside each container specified will be sent SIGKILL, or any signal specified with option --signal.
OPTIONS
--all, -a
Signal all running containers. This does not include paused containers.
--cidfile
Read container ID from the specified file and remove the container. Can be specified multiple times.
--latest, -l
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.
The latest option is not supported on the remote client.
--signal, -s
Signal to send to the container. For more information on Linux signals, refer to man signal(7).
EXAMPLE
podman kill mywebserver
podman kill 860a4b23
podman kill --signal TERM 860a4b23
podman kill --latest
podman kill --signal KILL -a
podman kill --cidfile /home/user/cidfile-1
podman kill --cidfile /home/user/cidfile-1 --cidfile ./cidfile-2
